Jim c Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 (edited) Bought a 1022 about a week ago and tonight was first night out with it. Really happy with how it cycled subs too. Nice and light and soon to have barrel shortened. Got 22 in total. Also before we started I checked the zero and as I went to pick the target back up found a camera in the bushes. Looked on it and it was from a skydiving school about 3 miles away. Returned it to them and they had lost it that day of one of there helmots. They were very happy. Couldn't believe it hadn't broken.

The Juicer Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Very nice. What sub's did you use? Anguilla jam every shot in mine but CCI fire 8 out of 10. I'm going to strip and clean and retest shortly as a clean is overdue, to see if that makes a difference with the anguilla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchieboy Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) Well done mate. A great result so I guess it's fair to say or assume that you are happy with your "new" rifle and well done to you for returning the camera, I suspect that some might have been tempted to keep it!

sonicdmb Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) watch how short you take the barrel it must be 24" long 12" min barrel 24" overall. and if I'm not mistaken you've a folding stock. I was going to get one of them but my 10 22 has a 12" barrel and even pinning the stock was dubious as to if it would comply (because its designed to fold) mine wears the wood stock it came in, hates winchester cycles remingtons not the best groups thought got to get some more brands to try. lovely gun use it for a truck gun 'cause I can shoot one handed, not bad for ratting either.

Jim c Posted July 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Yeah that was in the back of my mind. Will double check with the gunsmith before any cutting starts. Really happy how accurate it is as well. Plans are shorten barrel , over barrel moderator and get it ceracoated. My 17hmr is gettin the same as well.
